The curious case of the ChatGPT lawyer
In an civil case in a federal district court over which Judge Castel presides (https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/63107798/mata-v-avianca-inc/), a lawyer for the plaintiff has gotten himself and his firm in trouble for using OpenAI's ChatGPT to write his court filings, ending up citing several non-existent cases to make his case, then further providing ChatGPT-generated content from those cases when the court pressed him for it.

The case is still ongoing, and judge Castel hasn't ruled on these happenings yet, but it seems like a good candidate for inclusion in his "Notable Cases", either now or once the case is resolved.

This has significant media coverage ( ArsTechnica, CNN, HuffPost, BBC, NYTimes, etc,)
